10wks 4days old

I've just been to get Freya weighed and she's now a healthy 11lb 2oz. Still hovering between the 25th and 50th centile so gaining steadily.

She's awake so much more during the day now and rotates between her bouncy chair, swing chair, play gym and cuddles and chat. She's usually very content and just watches the world go by...or watches Noah play and laughs and smiles at him. Occasionally she gets fed up and you're not quite sure what to do with her. This tends to be when she's getting tired but is fighting sleep! She's such a nosey girl! Yesterday she got really cross and the only thing that soothed her in the end was a cool bath - she was obviously feeling a bit hot!

She has found her hands in a big way and whenever she's awake she has her fists in her mouth. One hand will find it's way to her mouth and the other hand will come up to hold it in place! There's this permanent slurping/sucking noise going on! I'd be very surprised if she doesn't end up a thumb sucker once she gains more control of her limbs! She's also into grabbing things - not toys yet, obviously, but hair and a bit of my top when she's feeding/being carried etc. She's such a sweetie.

I was eventually able to dig out the 0-3 months clothes a week or so ago. We're going to have to do a shop when she goes into 3-6m as before she was born I assumed she'd be in that size for the summer so it's mostly summer stuff. Unless she has a major growth spurt I think it'll be too cool for her to wear them when they fit!

She smiles ALL the time now if she can see/hear somebody. And she does these adorable gaspy little laughs! She's certainly got a temper on her though when she gets bored or wants something.

I'm sure I've said a lot of this stuff before...I can just never remember!

She's growing so fast and it's making me sad. I'm really enjoying being Mummy to a little girly...and Mummy to two..most of the time !!
